An Irish Atlantic Rainforest tells the story of Eoghan Daltun, a leading climate activist at the forefront to save native Irish rainforests in the face of climate change and political indifference. From his inner-city Dublin upbringing, to his life as a sculptor, to now a best-selling author; Eoghan is a striking and inspirational figure who now finds himself custodian to one of the best examples of temperate rainforest in Ireland - having rewilded an old farm on the edges of the Beara Peninsula in West Cork.
